§ 69. Mr. Murrayasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on the case of Mr. James Cross, the kidnapped British diplomat.
§ Sir Alec Douglas-HomeSince Mr. Cross was kidnapped on 5th October, we have been in the closest touch with the Canadian Government, who have kept us fully informed of the measures they are taking to try to secure that Mr. Cross is released unharmed. I know all Members of the House will join me in expressing the hope that these efforts will prove successful, and in extending profound sympathy to Mr. Cross and his family in their ordeal.
